Excellent find Michael ! May I also humbly ask for the whole picture ?

Imperial knights and Gallic horse (which looks particularly similar to period depictions of Eastern cavalrymen) are quite a treat as well !

Much obliged,
Samuel

I am too very interested in a large resolution (7MB) copy of Melchior Feselen's Battle of Alesia. Could I ask you to send me a copy on ngegir@yandex.ru, or, alternately, on ngegir@gmail.com.

I am currently researching depictions of renaissance and early modern engagements (or historical/fictional engagements by artists of the era) for my PhD, and found this source especially interesting. I had seen an overview in Hale's Artists and Warfare in the Renaissance (marked as "Siege of Alesia" there), but it's in B&W and, of course, very little of the detail can be seen.

Kind regards,

Nikolai A.G.
